A Night of Tears

The night of sorrow overtook my life.
My heart was so heavy that I couldn't breathe.
So much was the pain that I couldn't bear.
Broken, broken was my impression.

The time of the unexpected came.
Grief and pain offer
Many tears I shared and wept alone.
Sorrowful, sorrowful I was.

Like rain, my tears run down my chest.
Faster was a trembling lip I couldn't bear.
oh! How I share these tears
Never, never will I forget.

A night that was ruined with tears
Never did I expect it.
oh! I thought it could be for a moment 
Yet, yet my tears never seize to overflow 

My whole being was lost.
Confuse and perplexity as I cried.
No shoulder to clench my tears on.
Bitterly, I felt.
